Jack Armstrong Weighs In On Raptors 2012-13 Season

Jack Armstrong is getting set for season number 15 covering the Toronto Raptors. Jack will be covering 48 games this season for the folks at TSN and also doing his things for NBA-TV Canada. It has always been our pleasure to have him as a guest here in the Dino Nation Blog's Starting 5 for going on 4 years. What we love most about Jack is his realistic and honest opinions on the Toronto Raptors. How does he feel about this upcoming season. Does he see this team heading back to the post-season as some folks have been saying. What is his take on the Raptors new point guard situation and how would he handle it as a former coach? What does he think about the Raptors first round pick Jonas Valanciunas and his impact on this roster? Have the Raptors improved at the small forward position? His thoughts on Landry Fields, Ed Davis, Amir Johnson, Demar DeRozan and others all get covered. It is an in-depth look at your Toronto Raptors with training camp fast approaching. We go for almost 40 minutes covering all these topics and a lot more.



It kind of goes along with what I have been saying in the Dino Nation Blog for most of the summer. The Raptors are heading in the right direction, but to be a playoff team will take a lot of things going the Raptors way. Thanks to Jack as always. Also I am very excited about starting a weekly podcast called "This Week In Raptorland" and it starts October 8th. Myself and Josh Lewenberg from TSN 1050 the beat reporter on the Raptors. It should be fun and Josh will be co-hosting with me for most of the episodes as well as clips from our interviews and some things with our DNB Staff. We hope to keep you entertained through out the season in both The Starting 5 and This Week In Raptorland.
